(#234) or 40% Gym Finish (#293).
Step
1: Gather Equipment

Consult
Materials Checklist
Step
2:
Remove tape, labels and gum with a razor scraper or putty knife. Angle
the blade so you don’t damage the finish. Sticker and label residue
can be removed with Waterless Cleaner (#1130)
or Citrus
Degreaser (#1185).
Step 3:
Dust mop the floor.
Step
4:
Apply Waterless Cleaner (#1130) to approximately
100 to 200 square feet of flooring. You should be able to cover this
area before the cleaner dries.
Step
5:
Allow two minutes of dwell time.
Step
6:
Scrub the floor with a rotary machine and black pad or 120-grit screen.
Heel the machine on stubborn marks.
Note: Heel with caution - you can penetrate the finish and
damage painted lines or wood.
Step
7:
Pick up scrubbed solution with a mop and bucket.
Step
8:
Move on to the next floor section and repeat steps 4 through 7.
Step
9:
When the entire floor is clean, rinse thoroughly. Use Waterless Cleaner
(#1130) in a mop and bucket.
Step
10:
Tack rag the floor using lint-free towels and Waterless Cleaner (#1130).
Step
11:
Inspect the floor. It should be dull and clean. Trace amounts of white
residue from the previous finish are okay. If large amounts are present,
tack the floor again.
Step
12:
Let the floor dry completely before applying finish.
